Today I'm feeling inspired by Danish photographer Ditte Isager's home and studio in Copenhagen. A personal and creative interior, just as I like it. Hereyou can read more details about her home and if you want to see more of Ditte's work, you'll find her beautiful portfolio here.

If you liked the pink mood board in the previous post, you'll probably like the living room in this studio flat in Stockholm. A common way of adding colour to a room is through accessorizing, but the other way around can be just as effective: a bold choice of wall colour, with furniture and accessories in neutral hues. And when you've had enough of the pink (or whatever colour you have chosen), just repaint in order to get a whole new expression and atmosphere.Here you can see more photos from the flat.

Starting the week with this creative retro kitchen that I spotted on Ulrika's blog (thanks!). By paying close attention to details, the owners have managed to create an open, playful and inviting kitchen/dining area in this century-old apartment in Stockholm. For more pictures have a look here.

In a future life when I have loads of money, I will have a pied-à-terre like this one in Stockholm. Super optimized, the flat contains one bedroom and two sleeping lofts, a reasonably sized kitchen and living room plus built-in storage, and all this on only 50 sqm (for once I have even included the floor plan below). Perfect for meeting up with friends and family for a weekend! On top of that, it's located on Söder, my favourite area in Stockholm. For sale here.
I can't wait for my future life to begin :)

I'm very happy to present my new sponsor, KARE design France.

Also, right now you can get 15-20% off a selection of TV benches in various styles - industrial, traditional or modern (until April 17th)!

More and more furniture brands are launching their own accessories collections these days, and I'm happy to see that also a traditional brand like Fritz Hansen is following that trend. During the Milano fair next week Fritz Hansen will be presenting a collection of 12 objects for the home, designed by Danish and international designers like Jaime Hayon, Studio Roso and Wednesday Architecture. A nice way of perpetuating the Danish tradition of beautiful timeless design and high quality craftsmanship.

I like everything in this collection so it's hard to name any favourites, but special mention for the wooden trays, inspired by traditional Nordic bentwood boxes and shaker living (design by Wednesday Architecture), the mirror which is actually not even a mirror but a steel plate for which Studio Roso has developed an innovate technique to achieve a magical rainbow-like effect, and also the Dot stool, designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1954, with a seat made of leather left over from the crafting of the Egg and the Swan armchairs.

Raw walls, beautiful wide floor planks, dark veneer elements and a few industrial details make this space feel more like New York than Stockholm. Still that's where this two storey flat is located, for sale here. Love this kind of cosy minimalism.
